If I open an image, leave it alone, and observe the Squeak.exe process in
TaskManager, I clearly see a memory leak.
The error happens after about 15 or 16Mbytes increase.
So we should track the origin of un-released resources, and the problem
will then probably vanish.

For now, it's a show-stopper for me.
